Indianapolis Colts’ Reggie Wayne On Josh Downs, Receivers Having to Share Targets

Indianapolis Colts’ Reggie Wayne On Josh Downs, Receivers Having to Share Targets

for Josh down. How has his maybe not role but opportunities differed this year? Um I think just um like I don’t know anytime you’re out for that long and corner your eye. We also added a couple other weapons too, right? So I mean that’s kind of the point. Yeah, I think everybody numbers are probably down. It’s probably evenly dispersed between everybody if you look at it. So I wouldn’t say his role is lessened. I just think it’s uh we’ve we’ve it’s Christmas time, right? So, we’ve we’ve been nice and not naughty and Santa’s given us an extra weapon or two. Have you had to talk with the other guy the other guys about the fact that the obvious that when you add M Tyler Warren that there’s going to be less to go around. Yeah. And uh and they understand it. And I mean ultimately at the end of the day, that’s what you want. you want as many weapons as you can possibly have. And I talked to those guys and relate the situation like to my own, right, when I was playing. And um it’s just when you do get those opportunities, you got to make the best of them. You said they understand that that understanding and accepting are two different things. Yeah, they’re never going to accept it. Let’s let’s be honest. Um, but they do um they do like the fact that the more weapons we have, the better we can be, right? So there’s there’s not a skill position in this in this league that’s going to appreciate and want lesser opportunities, right? So, um, you just got to go with the flow. And I mean, yeah, you can have 15 targets a game, but you’re probably not going to be a good team, right? Um, so you need, you know, you need the help that that takes, if you’re the Michael Pitman of the world, that takes, you know, less pressure off of you and, uh, more one-on-one coverage.
